At the age of five, the future Swami Vireshwarananda was blessed by Swami Vivekananda, later initiated by Sri Sarada Devi, and ultimately Sannyasa from Swami Brahmananda. Swami Vireswarananda went on to become the tenth President of the Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission. He held that position for nineteen years, a tenure second only to Swami Brahmananda. This beautiful biographic essay, is enhanced by nearly 1000 pictures of the Swami and the people and places that accompanied him through his long life.
All power is within you. You can do anything and everything. Believe in that. Do not believe that you are weak; do not believe that you are half-crazy lunatics, as most of us do nowadays. Stand up and express the divinity within you.
-Swami Vivekananda
